Re: another approach

Validation yes, but putting the onus on the general public seems rather backward. Half of america still couldn't define broadband much less tell you if they have it.

Corporate reporting should form the basis possibly correlated with USGS data in an interactive mapping format. (think google maps, with a different color flag for each provider) Companies simply define areas they claim to service. Anyone that cannot get service in an area indicated as serviced can file a notice or have that territory removed from the coverage map. Of course some sort of fine system would also have to be in place to keep commercial entities from repeatedly claiming coverage in non-serviced areas.

The technology and geocoding data is readily available. There absolutely no need to keep up hiding public data.
